My Friend, how can a school grow 65% in less than 5 years, with less frustrations and higher quality?!?

on talent.
3 in 3
Last week we taught our Building Faculty Engagement Workshop to three schools in three consecutive days. Teacher orientation is a great time to deliver this professional development for Faculty Engagement, but this message should also be shared frequently throughout the year and with different voices to reinforce the key points.

The feedback was exciting:
"I never thought about how our personal energy and engagement effects my co-workers and especially my students. It really is a choice."--Teacher
"You did an amazing job today. The School Growth team is so knowledgeable and passionate about the dynamics that make a vibrant and healthy school. We were blessed to have you here."--Administrator
"Having an outside voice share these messages with our faculty was incredible. We needed this challenge to stay focused on what's really important. I will definitely be following up to schedule additional training and coaching."
--Administrator
Strategic vs. Tactical Planning
A strategic, long-term plan is important for accreditation and vision casting, but growth results more from effective tactical, short-term planning. This is a discipline that has been missing in school leadership training for far too long. The School Growth Method enables administrators to produce better results in less time with similar resources, and you'll learn how to build deeper relationships with donors and board members who more often have an entrepreneurial bent.
If you're ready to start growing, enroll in the upcoming School Growth Innovation Lab in Atlanta, September 13, 2016. (Financial aid is available for qualified schools)
